I know you're not supposed to compare your children, but don't worry - this is just in pictures.
Every few months I like to go back and find a picture of Londyn at Calvin's age, just because I can't get over how much they look alike. I thought I'd post a few and see if the consensus is with me. Or with Will, who periodically doubts that they look alike until I, once again, show him a comparison like these.
One day old:
6 weeks:
Four months:
Six months:
Eight months:
Two glaring differences that I notice: (well, Calvin's a boy, so three glaring differences)
The first is their respective tooth count. Londyn at 8 months: 0. Calvin at 8 months: 4, working on two more.
The second most obvious difference to me is their eyes. Londyn's have been blue for her entire life. By about 3 months they were a deep, dark, jewel-like blue. Today they're lighter, but they're still very much blue. Calvin eyes are . . . I have no idea what they are. I don't know if they're still changing or what. They are the oddest color. I don't even know what color to call them. The centers, right by the pupil, are light brown, then there's a big ring of grey, then a bit of green and/or blue, depending on the light and what he's wearing. They totally change. If they stay the way they are right now, I have no idea what color he'll put down on his driver's license.
I'll have to follow up with this periodically and see if this look-alike trend continues. Will says they're looking less alike as the months go by, and I actually think I might agree. I guess time will tell!

Cute pictures! I still have no idea what color Mayci's eyes are and she is almost 4. ha ha.
They do look quite a bit alike. Mainly the same nose and cheeks. Either way what a cute little muffin! Bring him over here so I can squeeze his cheeks! His big brown-looking eyes make him look so happy!
I totally see it. And I agree, definitely those cheeks and the nose. I love your kids' cheeks!!
That Calvin is a dreamboat. That is what that post is about, right?
Also, lets compare Hens' and Cal's eyes next time -- Hens has been rocking a few different rings of colors lately and its very confusing to me.
